About This Home

As of October 2024

Be prepared to fall in love the moment you lay eyes on this simply stunning and breathtaking three-bedroom, three full bath ranch home in the Bartletts Forest Hills subdivision with nearly 2700 square feet of finished living space including 815 square feet in the finished lower level!!! Peaceful, quiet, and a paradise retreat is what you will be thinking as you drive up to this immaculate home nestled on a quiet cul-de-sac on almost an acre of land!!! The moment you pull up you can picture yourself sipping your coffee on the front porch while enjoying the scenic view of the lushly landscaped yard. Before heading indoors, take a stroll to the back and be prepared to be awestruck with the spectacular backyard that features a brick paver patio with a tranquil water feature and an enclosed 3-Season room...any entertainer's dream! Imagine outdoor festivities of volleyball, frisbee or even a game of Baggo. Plenty of open space to put in raised garden beds to grow your own fresh veggies and a 16' x 12' shed to store all your tools!!! Walk over to the sitting area where you can relax after a long day and enjoy a cozy fire in the fire pit or enjoy the summertime favorite making of S'Mores!!! From the moment you step inside the foyer you will immediately feel the essence of being at home!!! To the right of the foyer, the living room adorned with crown molding, a large, bowed window and gorgeous hardwood floors gives you an unobscured view to the backyard. As you move into the "Heart of the Home" imagine the memories that will be made in the expansive kitchen, family room, and 3 Season room making entertaining the largest of families and gatherings a pleasure. You will be able to stay connected with everyone even when doing meal prep in this gourmet kitchen that features solid surface countertops, custom hickory cabinets with under cabinet lighting, tile backsplash, center island, breakfast bar, pantry cabinet and a coffee bar!!! This kitchen will delight any culinary chef especially with all the countertop and prep space!!! Enjoy a game night, family meals or just quiet time bug free in the enclosed 3 Season room with epoxy floors. All your plants will love the sunshine and warmth this beautiful solarium offers. Escape to the primary bedroom with its own ensuite and a large closet with custom closet organizer. Step into the private bath after a long day at work and relax in the jetted tub or shower away all your cares in the separate shower enclosure!!! Two more generous sized bedrooms that offer plenty of closet space and share a full hall bath round out the well-appointed sleeping area of this home. Main floor laundry/mud room with plenty of cabinetry, wash sink, folding table and room for nooks and hooks for coats/accessories is accessed directly from the backyard keeping your floors free from mud and snow! Head downstairs to the partially finished basement that includes a large rec room perfect for movie night or watching the Big Game...there is even enough room for a pool table! Wait...we're not finished yet!!! Adjacent room with large walk-in closet can be used as a home office, work-out room, craft room or home-schooling room...you make the call!!! Convenience of a third full bath for family and friends while working, housing guests or entertaining. Utility area in basement also has a workshop area for the handyperson of the house and a storage area for all your extra belongings! Newer roof, asphalt driveway, high efficiency HVAC and freshly painted exterior saves you time and money down the road! You will want to make this your next home!!! Do not wait!!!
